Luke’s Look – Round 10, 2012 – Best! Round! Ever! I’d go as far as saying that round 10 was one of the best rounds in recent memory, from my point of view anyway. With so much happening throughout the weekend, seemingly in every match played, let’s get straight into it with the recap of […]

Round Review – Round 8, 2012 There were few surprises in round 8, compared to the unpredictable round of footy that we endured in round 7. With only a couple of “50-50” games in the round, let’s look at some of the results in more detail. Friday night saw a 2011 Grand Final re-match between […]

Round Review – Round 7, 2012 It’s staggering that we’re already 7 rounds into the 2012 AFL Season. This round was a much more difficult week to tip a winner, with upsets seemingly everywhere, so let’s take a look at the events from the round just gone. Round 7 started in conventional style, with Hawthorn […]

Round Review – Round 2, 2012 In contrast to the sensational opening round last week, the Easter weekend of AFL didn’t exactly deliver on expectations. Let’s have a quick look at the better games before my favourite and not-so favourite things from Round 2. The footy weekend kicked off on Easter Thursday, with the Lions […]

Round Review – Round 1, 2012 This season, at the conclusion of most rounds, I’ll be writing a summary of the weekend’s action, as well as looking at what I liked, and didn’t like, from the round. Not every match may be covered, but some of the main discussion points will be touched upon and […]

In the final edition of the Power Rankings for 2011, I’m grading the season of each club plus picking their All-Australian contenders (a bit hard in some cases!). I have put together my All-Australian Team for this season – a difficult process at the best of times – so don’t be too tough on me […]

In this week’s Power Rankings, I’ve decided to look closely at the “wheeling & dealing” of Trade week (one of my favourite weeks on the footy calendar!). Specifically, what player has been the best pick-up by your club? I’m focusing on Season 2000 up to present day, as anything prior is essentially irrelevant to the […]

Following the excitement of last week’s hypothetical “Equalisation Draft”, we’re back to a more traditional format this round – with a look at the most recent form of the AFL’s finals contenders. Plus, more random statistics than even Bruce McAvaney would know what to do with! So let’s get straig . Collingwood 1 <NO CHANGE> . A business-like performance, but would Mick Malthouse be happy with the Pies being unable to out-score the Suns in the second half? I'd think not, but they still managed a 54-point win against the new boys. The Pies are travelling very well, on top of the ladder. […]

What would happen if the AFL, in a once-off ”Equalisation Draft”, allowed each club to acquire the services of another player in the competition? In a mouth-watering (yet cruel) exercise, this week I’ve taken the liberty of drafting a player to every AFL club – from a rival team – to help bolster their stocks. Who would you choose for your club?
